The following precautions should be taken when handling reclaimed pallet wood boards and in determining
where to use and dispose of the pallet wood boards.
Handling and Use Recommendations
Do not burn reclaimed pallet wood (see Disposal Recommendations below). Avoid prolonged inhalation of
sawdust. When sawing, sanding or machining wood, wear a dust mask. When power-sawing and machining
wood, wear goggles. Wear gloves when working with wood. All sawdust and construction debris should be
cleaned up and disposed of after construction. After working with the wood and before eating, drinking,
toileting, and using tobacco products, wash exposed areas thoroughly. Wash work clothes separately from
other household clothing before reuse. Reclaimed pallet wood boards should not be used where it may come
into direct or indirect contact with drinking water. Do not use pallet wood boards under circumstances where
the wood may become a component of food, animal feed or beehives. Do not use reclaimed pallet wood for
mulch. To remove mold from a reclaimed pallet wood surface, mild soap and water is recommended.
Variation and Defects:
Reclaimed pallet wood is a natural product and may contain certain aged characteristics including but not
limited to: color variation, nail holes, mortise holes, staining, tapering, wane (not squared) etc. Reclaimed
pallet wood dimensions are not exact and dimensions can vary. Appearances of reclaimed wood can also vary
from board to board, creating its unique look.
Wood Species:
Reclaimed pallet wood boards are created from multiple species of wood. Our pallets boards are domestically
sourced and manufactured for use according to IPPC guidelines.
Nails and Other Objects:
The reclaimed pallet wood comes from actual disassembled pallets. There is a possibility of nails, rough
surfaces, and other objects in the wood, both metallic and non-metallic.
Insects:
Reclaimed pallet wood comes from pallets that have been constructed using heat-treated wood to reduce the
risk of insects, mold, fungus, and other contaminants; however, exposure to these elements can still exist. We
do not use pallets treated with Methyl Bromide. Reclaimed pallet wood boards are not warranted against
insect habitation, mold, or fungus.
Disposal Recommendations:
Pallet wood products which are no longer usable—such as cutoffs, broken boards, sawdust or wood material
taken out of service—may be disposed of in landfills. Reclaimed pallet wood boards should not be burned in
open fires, stoves, fireplaces or residential boilers.
